We Buy Junk Cars in Grayslake in Any Condition
Grayslake is a short eleven-mile run west of Gurnee, mostly along Washington Street and Route 120, which puts our trucks in town in about twenty minutes. We handle pickups near the Lake County Fairgrounds, around the college campus where student cars die every semester, and throughout the subdivisions off Center Street and Alleghany Road.
Because Grayslake households turn over vehicles steadily, we see a lot of second and third cars that are structurally fine but mechanically finished — bad head gaskets, failed transmissions, rusted brake and fuel lines from a decade of road salt. Those vehicles hold real parts value and we price them accordingly.
Non-Running, Wrecked, or Title-Free Vehicles Welcome
You never need to start it, move it, or clean it out beyond your personal belongings. If the title is lost, mention it on the call — a large share of our Grayslake purchases are completed with ID and registration instead.
That extra car by the curb on Route 120 can be cash by tomorrow. Call 847-244-7171 and we will schedule the tow.

What Grayslake Customers Are Saying
CerebralAssassin1977Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Can I come visit in my semi truck from Canada? I watch you and Juan all the time. Auto Parts City, talk to you guys later. MikeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had dealings with Auto parts City. I am besides myself with the negative reviews about Auto Parts City. People used to leave negative reviews only for valid problems and not because they do not know how to use a phone or read or understand what’s been told to them. I have been pulling out of junkyards since the 80’s and if I didn’t want to pull the part myself off the vehicle then I called the yard and they pulled it off for me and they called me when it was ready. In those days people had thick skin also. If we did something wrong and we were told about it we didn’t run to Google and leave a bad review we didn’t have Google back then we had word of mouth but we never said anything we moved on or we went to the manager and settled it. There was no chicken scratch running and crying I’ll leave a bad review. Get over yourselves. Mikey FergusonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bought a car from them, service went smoothly. Appreciate these people going above and beyond for their customers, including their delivery service, Waterfall Logistics. Thanks Jeremy!
